    Why do you want to lose weight?: I want to TOSS these darn BP meds! And I want to be healthy.

And most importantly if you have a bad day- dont let it ruin weeks or months of hard work!

    I usually weigh on Fridays, that way I know how much wiggle room I have for the weekend to eat for social outings and I have the whole week to take it off before the next weeks weigh in (meaning i have 5 work days that i tend to usually be more dedicated to eating and exercising diligently).

    When do you all weigh in usually?

    Any day for weigh in works for me :) I usually check my weight every morning. The fluctuations stress me out a lot, but it makes me feel more in control of my day as far as food goes.

    Ellen, I hope you don't mind that I made a short skinny version of the banner to use...if you want me to go back to the other one, that is fine, just let me know. Anyone else is welcome to use it too, I thought it would be good to have 2 size options for it. Hope that's ok!

    Re skinny banner, that is really cool. I noticed that it is a photobucket link.. Some sites don't like linking because it uses a lot of bandwidth... When this happens pics may appear with a red x in the left corner, meaning that the pic is disabled temp. It may not happen right away, or at all.. But just a thought if you do decide to go skinny with banner it won't come as a surprise if it doesn't appear. :)

    I LOVE the banner guys, i might change mine myself ;) Thank you so much, well done!
    Also i was thinking our weigh in day could be Thursday (Tomorrow!) so get your scales ready girlies, i want to see some numbers! This can count as our first official weigh in and from them on i will create a separate thread with a little chart to keep track of all of our loss. I'm so happy this is coming together so well!

    Thursdays work too (I am one of those weigh every morning people, I KNOW i shouldn't but it keeps me on track) I also have an excel sheet I record on every day so I can see how my fluctuations go every week so I don't get bummed out if it goes up on a Saturday morning after eating out the night before etc.

    I'm hoping to see a good number tomorrow, TOM always messes mine numbers up a bit so I'm hoping it'll drop a bit more tomorrow since it's been a day or so. (Does anyone not weigh during their TOM- I know some people stay away from the scale that whole week so if that's the case would it mess up anything?)

    You said we will post those numbers on a separate forum? However you want to work it is fine as long as I can find it.
